Just because clamps are tight does not mean there is a leak.. are the hoses over the pipes sufficiently? are the clamps OVERtightened?

I use t-clamps from Masters n use cable tie to tighten all the vacuum hoses. I had a same problem n it's been 6 months no leak whatsoever. And as @Jmac said don't over tighten the clamps n make sure they are over the pipe suffiently. Do a leak test with soap n water spray if u don't have a air compressor. Gluck

redoing tonight with new vaccum hose, new clamps (I have already done twice using same clamps). Since original post have installed a Forge BPV and hyperteck tune.. Noise still there, same time, same duration. Nothing I seem to do affects it.. How possible is it the welds to leak on a TIP. Its a HTP brand.
Noise is definitely around turbo now I have realised. You cant here from the outside and inside it sounds just behind firewall.
Thanks for responding lads, will keep you posted..
Also today a "friend" who was once the "worlds greatest mechanic", apparently, took it for a drive and he reckons it an over boost warning?? ? Coming from engine bay, doesn't make sense to me... He reckons the solenoid can make that noise??
God dam noise!!! Still there. Replaced clamps, vaccuum hoses, nipples, bpv. Bloody everything!!!!
I'm gonna post another vid soon, please let me know if this definitely sounds like a leak.. Everyone that has driven it says yeh but nobody can help me to find it.
Thanks
Do you mean the beep beep, could it be a speed alarm on your computer?
And it's been hyperteched!

Taken from a VW after intake install sound Is from the engine bay!
Yeh right.. Very similar.. Hmmm prob not much I can do then seeing as though it was there before and after flashing it.
Cheers
Just googled car beep from engine bay after intake. Many threads!
Google these exact words... Car beep with intake
Lol I read that nail thread too! Yeah the mystery continues, maybe call Mazda
Steps to complete before next post:
1. Do boost leak test on car
2. Fix leak
3. Report with great success
Access to a compressor is quite difficult but yes your right, boost test definitely needed.
Sooo I found this post, pretty funny but seemingly practical lol http://www.mazdaspeedforums.org/foru...ranteed-94844/
Will post results tomorrow.
